If I Could Be There

If I could be there in your arms,

And feel your beating heart,

Snuggled up safe from harm,

I'd trace my fingers, 'cross your chest,

And soak up all the pain and stress.

I'd kiss you softly and hum a lullaby,

And hug you tightly,

Letting out a happy sigh.

The world would start to turn again,

And we would see only happy ends.

But across the miles, I still feel your love. 

So until that day, dream of me,

And everything that we will be,

When from this distance, we are freed.
